Birds on a Wire Necklace

About this design:

I love Kylie's "Birds on a Wire" Pendant, they look so sweet watching the sunset. I wanted to incorporate the colors of the sunset into the cord, which is where the silk ribbons came into play. I then randomly knotted several snippets of blue leather to represent the birds flying off into the fading sun.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1:
Take the 2 ribbons, starting at one end of leather cord, tie a knot. Then continue to twist around leather cord and knot until you reach the other end of the necklace.

Step 2:
Attach the pendant to the necklace by stringing a 6" length of both ribbons through each hole going over the top of the pendant. Then loop the ribbon over the necklace, back down and under the ribbons that are going over the pendant. Secure with a knot.

Step 3:
Create a Beach Stone Pebble chain trickle next to the pendant by looping a jumpring through a pebble. Then attach to another jumpring with another pebble an so on until you are out of pebbles. Secure the last jumpring to the necklace, right next to the pendant.

This is so beautiful. I love the “birds on a wire” pendant, and the dangled stones next to it are an added plus. I think you did a fabulous job of matching the pendant colors in the ribbons and leather … fabulous.
